Dex Working to Deliver Directories to Area Residents; DexKnows.com Also Available 


CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, June 13  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Current flooding in Cedar Rapids and the surrounding areas has caused many residents to seek information on local businesses and organizations that can help them.  Many typically turn to Dex(R) Yellow Pages for this information but may not yet have received their new directories or lost their directories in the flood. For those affected, Dex today announced that delivery of Dex directories is continuing in flood-ravaged areas and is providing residents with different options with which they may receive local information.

"We're deeply concerned for the people of Iowa and are working hard to provide them with directories that will assist them in their recovery," said Ric Jensen, regional marketing manager, Dex.  "In the meantime, people with electricity can log onto DexKnows.com, our local online search site, for all of the information that is also available in our print directories."

Consumers who wish to request new or additional directories can dial 1-877-2-GET-DEX.  Dex expects to be able to fulfill these requests next week. Dex is also currently commencing Yellow Pages delivery in Mason City and Waterloo to those located on high ground.  Dex is currently delivering to high ground locations and will deliver to low lying areas once the water recedes.
